Book excerpt: This study considers the important institution of the the Okpu, from a historical perspective but always with an eye to its future, treating it as a living cultural phenomenem. The Okpu are here compared, at a primary level, to the pyramids of ancient Egypt. They are the burial site of ancestors over which shrines, mausoleums, houses or monuments are erected, and represent a major cultural resource among the Nembe people of the Eastern Delta. The study also provides an account of the artifacts left behind by European visitors to the Brass and Nun rivers, in order to present a rounded view of the Nembe in the Niger Delta. It traces how the earliest Okpu were simple structures and the rise of their sophistication in the early twentieth century coincided with the intrusion of Western ideas and Christianity which put the values underpinning the Okpu in retreat. However despite this intrusion, the author concludes the Okpu tradition is complex and changing, has adapted itself to history and remains strong.

Download or read book History of the Urhobo People of Niger Delta written by Peter Palmer Ekeh and published by Urhobo Historical Society. This book was released on 2007 with total page 730 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: History of The Urhobo People of Niger Delta is the most comprehensive compilation and study of various aspects of the history of the Urhobo people of Nigeria's Niger Delta. It begins with an examination of the prehistory of the region, with particular focus on the Urhobo and their close ethnic neighbour, the Isoko. The book then embarks on a close assessment of the advent of British imperialism in the Western Niger Delta. History of The Urhobo People of Niger Delta also probes the arrival and impact of Western Christian missions in Urhoboland. Urhobo history is notable for the sharp challenges that the Urhobo people have faced at various points of their di?cult existence in the rainforest and deltaic geographical formation of Western Niger Delta. Their history of migrations and their segmentation into twenty-two cultural units were, in large part, e?orts aimed at overcoming these challenges. History of The Urhobo People of Niger Delta includes an evaluation of modern responses to challenges that confront the Urhobo people, following the onrush of a new era of European colonization and introduction of a new Christian religion into their culture. The formation of Urhobo Progress Union and of its educational arm of Urhobo College is presented as the Urhobo response to modern challenges facing their existence in Western Niger Delta and Nigeria. History of The Urhobo People of Niger Delta extends its purview to various other fragments of the Urhobo historical and cultural experience in modern times. These include the di?culties that have arisen from petroleum oil exploration in the Niger Delta in post-colonial Nigeria.
